That darn fire... again



Ate lunch at an outdoor eatery called the Sandbox. Swings at the bar, sandbox inside for kids to entertain themselves. No dogs allowed on the deck, so Izzy waited patiently for
us.





Took the kids to a very small amusement park down the road today. It was a throwback to I don't know when, but it was all very civilized and sweet and the main attraction, the "Cyclone" only sounded like tin cans once in a while. They had a blast. I couldn't watch them on the Go-Karts, as Cameron was in the lead and was not about to give it up.



On the way back, stopped at the petting farm where Sophie pet the kittens and goat, cow and pigs. As quaint as it sounds, I couldn't get out of there fast enough.

Tracey, remember that instant bbq you gave me - almost made chicken kebobs on them tonight. Had to finish them off in the microwave, but still had that good charcoal taste (tho the kids hated that charcoal taste so it was pasta with butter and chips and salsa for them).

Not loving our KOA neighbors, tho can't really put a finger on why. Maybe it's the music blasting from their truck, or maybe I'm just jealous that they made scallops and mussels in their fish fry. It's almost like they have a circus RV - 2 people go in, 7 come out.

Kids just left to participate in a scavenger hunt. Beforehand, Cameron took a hayride through the woods where he said stuffed animals were placed all around and they had to count them. Apparently he made friends, because when we were eating dinner, 3 16-year-old girls walked by and greeted, "Hi Caaaaaameron!"

And as usual.... the fire is now a full blaze. S'mores anyone?

  2. Are those Izzy's paws or was she just taking something out of the oven? Great picture of the kids on the ride - but usually the outer kid gets smushed!

  4. I really feel like I am with you guys! I catch myself laughing outloud to your blogs! The picture on the ride is hilarious and swings at the restaurant? They must not have a liquor license bc many guests might end up on their cans! I can't wait to show molly and Maggie the pictures tomorrow.
    Enjoy and keep it coming!!!
